I was born in the Ukraine and was raised in an artistic family.I was fortunate enough from the day of my birth, to be surrounded by artists and opera singers.I have a BA Honors Degree in Fashion and Textile Design awarded by Kiev University.Many years of my life have been dedicated to fashion. This experience has given me an insight into this industry. This culminating in myself becoming involved in Ukrainian fashion shows exhibitions dealing with TV and media on a regular basis. World Wide magazines published many of my designs.Although my background is in design, I have always had an interest in painting.
